Notes:

1. The number of requirements completed may be a slight
underestimate as some local authorities were not able to supply
full details for orders where the unpaid work element was completed
but some part of the order (usually the supervision element) was
not completed in that year. Figures for time taken to complete
requirements are expressed in terms of calendar days.
